Chapter 653: Gale (10)

Xiao Wang Taojia was beheaded by Liu Xia Plantar, and the dozens of Di warriors who broke into the warrior array were already at the end of the crossbow, and now they have lost their backbone, and they were inadvertently rushed up by the warriors and killed them all.

And the soldiers outside the formation were also shocked by the death of Xiao Wang Taojia, some of them were sluggish, some were shocked, and they had not yet come to their senses, this is on the battlefield, the action is one minute faster or half a minute slower, which is the difference between life and death, and the screams sounded again and again.

For a moment, the situation reversed, and the phalanx of the warriors closed the gap and continued to move forward. Seeing that the patriarch was dead, the Di people of the two tribes were full of courage, and they no longer dared to rush forward, and at this moment of the battle, they suffered heavy casualties, and they could not break through the phalanx of Zhao soldiers, so they retreated one after another.

In pursuit of the Di people, the Zhao soldiers rained down with bows and arrows and crossbow arrows, and in the front line of this battle, the Di people left at least a thousand corpses in the field, and the rest were either evacuated under the leadership of Cheng Cheng or fled in all directions.

The thief calmly cut off the head of Xiao Wang Taojia, and galloped back to Zhao Wuxian with his head.

"General, I think I can have one more hundred households as a food town!"

As a kind of transition, the highest reward now implemented in Eastern Zhao was the "tax system", and the administrative power of the feudal was still managed by the local administrator appointed by Zhao Wuxian, and the recipient of the feudal title was neither adjacent to the land nor the people, and of course could not levy forced labor. He only gave the nominal right to rule that place, as well as the taxes and rewards to the recipients, as a lu, similar to the Hou state of the Han Dynasty, but this was enough to make the lowly Eastern Zhao scholars and military officials flock to it.

Zhao Wuxian won the first battle, and at the same time, defeating the Di people could also allow the Zhao army to continue to advance and oppress the enemy's deployment space. And his own casualties are only hundreds, so he is naturally happy in his heart. But he encouraged the thief: "Zishi Xiu has to be satisfied, what is a hundred households?" This little Wang Taojia is just an appetizer before the feast. If the second and third sons can behead or capture Fan and the second secretary of the Bank of China, how can I spare a thousand households? ”

When everyone heard this, they were overjoyed, and they asked for help saying that they were willing to fight to the death and achieved this great achievement.

Having said that, but next, Zhao Wuxian and they could take a break for a while, and they had already agreed with Zhao Ying before the battle that he would break the enemy's strength as a striker, and then retreat to the rear army as a reserve. It's a method of alternating rotations. It can restore the physical strength of the soldiers in a decisive battle that lasts for several hours.

In fact, in retrospect, Zhao Wuxian felt that he still didn't communicate enough with his father, as long as he said it, he wouldn't keep letting the soldiers bleed in front......

……

In the middle of the army, Zhao Ying stood up straight on the chariot, he held down the armrest, leaned over and looked into the battle formation, and saw that Zhao Wuxian's military flag was blocked for a while. He began to continue to assault forward, and Di Bing was invincible, and it seemed that he had won.

He admired from the bottom of his heart, and sighed to the people on the left and right: "My son is not only good at military strategy. He is also good at military strength, and he has a clear mind in every battle, and his achievements in the future may be far better than mine. Those who can prosper the Zhao family in the future, this son? ”

Retainers and minor clansmen chimed in. In this war with Fan and the Bank of China, Zhao Wuxian did make a great effort. They couldn't help but think fearfully, if the gentleman hadn't gone to the country of Lu and hadn't controlled the country of a thousand times, would this battle still be so smooth for their side?

A repulsive engagement in the front can not only frustrate the enemy's edge, but also allow time for the rear to prepare.

At this time, if you look down from mid-air, you can see that the more than 10,000 people of the Zhao and Han coalition army are composed of five large arrays, namely 3,000 Zhao soldiers in Jinyang, with Zhao Ying as the main commander; There are 2,000 soldiers at the head of the horse, with Zhao Yi as the main commander; There are 4,000 Han soldiers, with Han Hu as the main commander; There are 2,000 Zhao soldiers in Wenxian County, with Zhao Luo as the main commander; In addition, there are 3,000 right troops of the Lu State.

Inside, there were many small squares arranged in order, either in a hundred or five hundred, and they were the basic units of the battle.

With the sound of the drums of the Chinese army and the command of Zhao Ying's general flag, the commanders of the five large arrays in the array sometimes adjusted the position of their headquarters, or went a little outward or moved a little inward, and sometimes moved forward and backward with the sound of the general flag and drums, and were ready to advance and fight.

The Fan and Zhongxing soldiers on the opposite side also formed several corresponding phalanxes under the command of Erqing, and their numbers were larger than those of the Zhao and Han coalition forces, but the arrays were a little chaotic and loose.

Because Fan Jishu and Zhong Xingyin didn't expect that the Di people were defeated and retreated so quickly, and they were beheaded by the main general, the morale was greatly reduced, and the remaining two or three thousand Di people were evacuated in formation, and most of them fled in scattered stars, and they actually crashed into the array that had just been lined up, and only after dozens of people were shot and killed did they stop running around like headless flies, but the scene was even more chaotic.

"Good chance!" The opportunities on the battlefield are changing rapidly, Zhao Ying captured the chaos of the enemy, he took the drum vertebrae, and personally beat the drum of the general attack.

"Boom!" The war drums sounded, and Zhao Bing's foot soldiers stood up from the ground in the sound of the drums, picked up their spears and marched forward. In order to save physical strength, before the war, just like the cavalry did not ride horses, the foot soldiers did not stand, they all sat on the ground, and the legend said that Sima Sui Tho described the art of war, and there was a "sitting formation" item.

Then, Zhao Ying asked people to wave the flag at the Chinese army and let Zhao Wuxian's soldiers withdraw. A decisive battle of this scale is not a quick rush to determine the outcome of the battle, they are like two strong men with two corners, you come and go, the battle may last for a day, or even several days......

At this point, the Chinese army is about to start moving, and Zhao Ying loudly encouraged the people around him: "The Fan clan of the Zhongxing clan treasoned against the country, beheaded the people, and wanted to destroy the Zhao clan by taking advantage of the politics of the Jin country." The second and third sons cut it down from me, conformed to the will of heaven, obeyed the king's orders, passed through virtue and righteousness, and except for the shame of the past, it is today. Don't be afraid, Biwan was just a horseman back then, and he fought seven times but did not die, and then he had four hundred horses and died well at home. The second and third sons work hard and fight bravely to kill the enemy, but they may not die at the hands of the enemy. Pass on my general order, those who defeat the enemy, the upper doctor will be subject to a thousand rooms, the lower doctor will be subject to a hundred households, a hundred acres of Shitian, and the people will be exempted from politics (exempted from status)! ”

Everyone listened, the blood was full of blood, only Zhou She quickly recorded on the slip, this is the "Common Oath"!

……

Further ahead was an array of nearly 20,000 enemy troops, and if he wanted to rely on his three or four thousand men to attack, it was an act of death, so Zhao Wuxian followed Zhao Ying's banner and led his soldiers to get out of the wilderness. Retreat to the rear of the side to rest.

Let the healers treat the wounded while also keeping a close eye on the battlefield. They will act as an elite and fresh force, keeping an eye on the enemy's reserves. Always ready to replace it.

One friendly army phalanx after another crossed Zhao Wuxian and headed forward, all of them casting reverent glances as they passed.

And Zhao Ying's general flag is in the middle army, inserted on the car, standing high in the sun, fluttering in the wind, white background, golden sun, Xuanniao. Based on this tone, the Jinyang Zhao soldiers of the Chinese army were all dressed in white clothes, white fashion, plain armor, and plain feathers. It's hopeful. The other three Zhao soldiers mostly wore black clothes, like gloomy water, but the Han clan was light green.

On the opposite side, Fan and Zhongxing mostly wear silk clothes and earthy yellow clothes, and the colors on both sides are distinct.

Zhao Wuxian looked forward, and could see the opposite Fan, the Dragon Banner of the Bank of China, and the Xiong Zhen Banner fluttering, and after letting the defeated Di people go around the rear formation, a military chariot galloped past in front of the formation, and the people in the car raised their swords while galloping. Roar loudly. Far away, of course, Zhao Wuxian couldn't hear what the general was saying, but he thought that he was probably passing on military orders, just to boost the morale of the soldiers.

But after the striker was defeated. The morale of Fan and Bank of China was already very low, and those Bai Di people who had witnessed the death of warriors like Xiao Wang Taojia lost the courage to continue fighting.

A smile appeared at the corner of Zhao Wuxian's mouth. These Di people may become the most unstable factor in the enemy's army formation in this war.

Instead, it was Zhao Bing's side. Under the encouragement of Zhao Ying, the spirit is flourishing. Everyone is gearing up to make a difference.

The drums were bursting, and the five formations of the left, center, and right wings began to slowly press up, and more than 10,000 Zhao and Han soldiers moved together, and the momentum was amazing.

Looking for a slightly higher small earthen bag and looking into the distance, Zhao Wuxian saw that the position in front of him was endlessly full of dense human heads, and the spears were like forests under the clear blue sky, and the armor was like clouds.

On the opposite side, Fan and the main formation of the Bank of China were more than Zhao Jun, with 20,000 people, and they also moved at this moment.

"Break the enemy's rook first!"

Zhao Yingzhong's army waved its flag, and the cavalry concentrated on the right flank saw this, so they blew their horns to attack, and in just a moment, they had rushed out of more than a mile.

Zhao Wuxian brought 800 cavalry, and after entering Hanoi, after several battles, more than 100 cavalry were killed and wounded, and now there are still six or seven hundred cavalry, plus Zhao Ying's belt from Jinyang, a total of 1,000 cavalry can be made. They conserved maximum horsepower and temporarily fed food, and now is the time for Life Fitness.

Zhao Bing is five formations of foot soldiers in the middle, the chariots and cavalry are concentrated on the right flank, and Fan and Zhongxing are also in such a formation, but the chariots and cavalry are divided into two wings, and the target of the cavalry is the enemy's left wing chariot soldiers!

Seeing that the Zhao cavalry launched the attack first, the Fan chariot soldiers who had just formed a formation were panicked, Fan Jishu hurriedly ordered and sent a chariot of about 300 in advance, mixed with a small number of Di cavalry hurriedly out of the formation, hoping to withstand them and protect the flanks.

But the chariots came out late, the speed was slow, and just after a short journey, the cavalry of the Zhao army rushed in.

While galloping, Yu Xi observed the changes in the enemy's formation, and occasionally shouted and gave orders, and a thousand light horsemen adjusted the team in the gallop according to the order, and gradually formed a trident-shaped shock formation. First the skilful men began to shoot on horseback, then the assault charged, and soon, the cavalry crashed into the chariot formation of Fan and Zhongxing without hindrance, and its momentum was very sharp.

They had been recuperating for a long time, and their horses were quick and sharp, and the enemy's chariots and horses soon fell into separate battles, unable to resist, and were all defeated.

In just a moment, Fan's proud chariot soldiers retreated, and their flanks were empty!

……

The enemy's chariots were defeated and retreated, and the flanks suddenly lost protection, Fan Jijiao and Zhong Xingyin were shocked, and hurriedly waved their flags to let the army press.

The same is true for Zhao Jun's side, stepping forward, and the distance gradually enters the range of long-range weapons.

The archers and crossbowmen drew their crossbows and shot arrows at each other, and arrows rained down, and a large number of soldiers on both sides fell with arrows. Looking from Zhao Wuxian's place, under the bright sun, I saw that in the formation that stretched for miles between the enemy and us, there were suddenly patches of vacancy, which was a soldier who had fallen with arrows, as if the dense wheat field had been blown down by the wind in a few places.

Soon, however, more soldiers came up from behind to fill the gaps.

Normally, there were no more than three arrows at the enemy, and after shooting a few arrows, the foot soldiers in front of the enemy approached. The crossbowmen are back, and the spearmen are on top. The battle between the enemy and the enemy was like a fighting dog, and the dense spears that were now on top of it were the sharp minions of these two vicious dogs.

When they were still dozens of steps away from each other, Zhao Bing, who was in high spirits, took the lead in launching a charge, and the shouts shook far and near, and Zhao Wuxian felt deafening two miles away.

Dozens of paces passed in a blink of an eye, and the front resistance of the two armies collided, spears against armor, shields against swords, and bloody foot soldiers began hand-to-hand combat.

Zhao Wuxian watched the battle intently, because as long as he closed his eyes and opened his eyes, there would be almost hundreds of casualties on the battlefield, and the situation would also change slightly.

At this time, the sun was already rising, and the heat wave rolled up the wind, blowing in the face, and smelling a heavy smell of blood in the nose. All the soldiers of the enemy and us, whether brave or fearful before the battle, when they collided with the enemy, when they were pushed forward, and could no longer retreat, they had only one thought left: to kill the enemy, or to be killed by the enemy!

On the battlefield, there were fewer soldiers in Zhao and Hanlian, and there were more soldiers in Fan and Bank of China, and in terms of equipment and tactics, the two sides were actually almost the same. Thanks to Zhao Wuxian's behavior of hitting the morale of the enemy army several times before the battle and improving his own spirit, the Zhao army had the strength to fight and gradually gained an advantage.

But the advance of the battle line is still extremely slow, sometimes the Zhao soldiers bravely advance and move forward, sometimes they crash headlong into the strong formation, retreat, and the scene on the battle array is extremely anxious.

The battle has been fought so far, the chariot and cavalry have decided the victory, and the foot soldiers have also fallen into a fierce battle for a long time, and the troops that the enemy and I have put on the battlefield have no potential to dig up, and at this time if you want to win, you have to send the elite at the bottom of the box, and the well-known Dongyang dead soldiers of the Zhongxing clan have not yet been taken out, and the Zhao army is here, and the soldiers have rested enough.

After watching it for a long time, Zhao Wuxian said firmly: "As long as we join in, Zhao Jun will win!" ”

Not only did Zhao Wuxian think so, but Zhao Ying also thought so, but just when he waved the banner of the Chinese army and was about to send Zhao Wuxian and his soldiers into battle, there was a commotion on the battlefield ahead!

It's a sunny day in May, and noon is just the time when the wind is easy to rise, and just when the two sides are fighting, the wind suddenly rises in the four fields, and the dust is blowing.

The wind came from the northeast and blew to the southwest, facing Zhao Bing. The wind and sand are blind, the dust is in, and the fierce offensive of the Zhao army is stagnant!
